I expect there is nothing more delightful than filtering a password-encrypted .zip file called "3a35f13.zip" that contains a password-encrypted .zip file called "3a35f13c.zip" which in turn contains the "best" of J.K. Rowling.

I mean... you can tell it's illegal just by looking at the filename!!

Personally, I hope every content provider that wastes any substantial amount of time and/or resources on combating piracy is eventually bankrupted by it. We'll be left both with better content and a more free and civil world.
